European Logistics Company Raben Group Invests in Turkey

Raben Group, one of Europe's established logistics brands, has begun offering seamless and efficient logistics solutions in Turkey.

Raben Group Regional Director Bartłomiej Łapiński highlighted that Turkey occupies a key logistics hub position in terms of transit transportation between the EU, CIS countries, the Middle East and China. Łapiński stated, "Our presence in Turkey will strengthen connections for our European customers, while enabling us to provide comprehensive logistics services within EU borders to our Turkish customers."

As the Middle Corridor's importance in global logistics routes increases, the interest of the world's largest logistics companies in Turkey continues to grow. Adding Turkey as its 17th country to its expanding network in Europe, Raben Group has reinforced its commitment to building a strong and independent partial load network across the continent. Through this move, the Group has further advanced its capability to deliver seamless and efficient logistics solutions.

"Raben Turkey," which has commenced operations, reaches key European hubs including Poland, Czech Republic and Slovakia, as well as Germany, Netherlands, Italy, Romania and Bulgaria through fast and secure connections.

Raben Group's ownership of its own partial distribution network consisting of 33 points particularly in Germany, Turkey's primary export market, is of major significance for Turkish companies. The company thus offers important opportunities for importers and exporters to expand their international reach.

"Turkey is an important global logistics hub"
Raben Group Regional Director Bartłomiej Łapiński emphasized in his assessment that their entry into the Turkish market represents a very important step for them. Pointing out that Turkey holds a key logistics hub position in terms of transit transportation between the European Union, CIS countries, the Middle East and China, Łapiński stated, "Our Turkey investment is evidence of our commitment to building a comprehensive transport network across Europe and beyond and providing top-tier logistics services. With this investment, we are not only strengthening our network, but also increasing our capacity to provide unique logistics solutions to our customers. This way, while strengthening connections for our European customers, our Turkish customers will also be able to receive comprehensive logistics services within EU borders."

Will provide growth opportunities for Turkish companies in Europe
Raben Turkey General Manager Selman Çoban expressed enthusiasm about bringing Raben Group's established logistics expertise to Turkey. Çoban stated, "By providing widespread storage and transport services across Europe to Turkish companies, we will offer seamless connections and growth opportunities."

Embarking on a path of strong growth targets, the company will further expand its operational capacity and logistics network in Turkey in the coming years, in line with its commitment to providing top-tier logistics solutions throughout the region.
